he's a biased unfunny cuck with shitty teeth

Because it's the current year.

Because its (the current year)

I liked him in 2015.

he had them fixed due to bully americans

Because he's a bankrolled propagandist with extremist-leftist viewpoints that idiots confuse for "comedy".

Its the current year OP

but isnt everyone biased to a certain degree?

what makes him different from lets say John Stewart or Ben Shapiro?

He started the Trump campaign
youtu.be/sJ-pHKsXgm0

autistic children whose dependence on meme culture has left them devoid of any thoughts of their own

Because he criticizes Daddy Trump and Sup Forums simply can not handle that. The are right that he is an establishment puppet though, but they want him to shill for their puppet instead of the 'opposition'.

He's a leftist who takes his marching orders from Hillary Clinton and the DNC (he's mentioned in those infamous email leaks). And a lot of people are annoyed by the way some of his arguments boil down to "It's modern times, you HAVE to believe what I'm saying! How could you not believe it? What are you, some kind of racist?".

He's not all bad, though. Some of his segments actually bring attention to important issues a lot of people don't normally consider (our woefully underfunded infrastructure, the issue of police having the power to essentially rob you at gunpoint without explanation, Ecuador's president being a psychopath, etc.).

I still think he's funny. But his refusal to go after the Clinton campaign is disappointing. Has he even mentioned WikiLeaks or the Project Veritas videos on his show?

>what makes him different from lets say John Stewart or Ben Shapiro?

Stewart and Shapiro both proudly pointed out their own political leanings. Oliver hasn't, he pretends that everything he's saying is just reason.

>but isnt everyone biased to a certain degree?

No, not really.

Even if it were true, Oliver is biased to an extreme degree. He's the Left's version of a fucking hooded Klansman.

Because fa/tv/irgins are insecure as fuck and would rather insult others than admit that not everyone agrees with them and that's ok.

COOKIES WITH RAISINS ARE BAD
>audience snickers
NOW THIS RAISIN COOKIE IS HILLARY CLINTON
>audience is rife with uncomfortable murmuring and subdued gasps
AND THIS SEA CONTAINER OF RAISINS BEING DUMPED ON MY DESK IS DRUMPF
>crowd bursts into wild applause

Sounds like you're describing Oliver's fans.

Shapiro is a proud conservative, Stewart is a proud liberal. As far as I know Oliver has always acted like his commentary is just correct without biases.

I always wonder about what mods thoughts are during these threads.

It's not a News show like CNN or FOX.


It's literally a comedy show that attempts jokes about the news.

So how does Sup Forums fit in?

It must be up to individual mod.

He's not funny. Plus his show is terrible when it comes to the election hell all talk shows if not all television is bad awful due to this election. Thank God it's almost over.

>Jon Oliver fans

I really can't imagine being a person so intellectually bankrupt that you actually watch this clown's show and suck-down every talking-point he makes like it's a fresh load of cum from your freshly-prepped bull.

Stream where

You were going somewhere until you started with the tired old nonsensical cuck meme.

In general, the mods let this kind of stuff go, because it really is more entertainment than it is news. It's a shame that it's not as funny as the Stewart/Colbert shows though.

I don't dislike him as most on Sup Forums but I do have a few problems with the show

>The visual humor is almost never funny, the pictures that show up whenever he makes a joke are too on the nose
>It always feels like he's scared and trying to ward off an angry mob whenever he even implies that he might be taking an unpopular stance. (I know some people talk with their hands a lot but at times it feels like he's literally trying to defend himself, like there's someone with a gun holding him hostage.)
>The obvious attempts at pushing people towards Hillary, I actually just wish that he would admit that he wants us to all vote for Hillary as opposed to saying "No one should say 3rd part candidates votes don't matter" and then trying to tare down all 3rd part candidates.

He was a much better host on the Daily Show. Maybe it's because Stewart was still the producer and kept him on a short leash.

He targeted Gamer Gate, I know tons of nerdy niggers and beaners that harass women online.

>No one should say 3rd part candidates votes don't matter" and then trying to tare down all 3rd part candidates.

but he is correct, voting for a third party is a waste in a presidential election. the system prevents a viable third party at that level.

either elect third party at local levels or vote in primaries and try to change a party.

>He's a leftist

smudge and arrogant

>insert complex issue
>portray only one side, ignoring all counter arugments or making them obvious strawmen

The inability for people to even consider that people they disagree with might have valid points is a serious problem, and he's contributing to making it worse. Everyone just stays in their own little corner of the internet, watching and reading things that they already agree with it.

Also him doing a Trump episode instead of a Clinton/Sanders one during the primaries when 99% of his audience were going to be voting in Democratic primaries showed his total cowardice.

>implying america has a left

we have a center right party and a fringe right party

>mfw liberals try to convince me that having a potty mouth is worse than committing voter fraud

Because the whole "drumpf" thing was massively hypocritical of him.

For starters, his paternal grandfather's last name was Boyd Carpenter (that's one name). So by his own logic, he should be Jon Boyd Carpenter.

But beyond that, even the idea behind it is ugly. What, basically, is the appeal of "Drumpf" instead of "Trump"? It sounds funny to his childish viewers. Isn't he basically just making fun of a foreign-sounding name, then? Isn't that exactly the kind of "bigoted xenophobia" he has bitched about night after night after fucking night coming from Trump's supporters?

What a fucking hypocrite.

But john stewart comes off as smug and arrogant and he's also left leaning.

yet he doesnt get nearly as much hate as i see john oliver get.

>nonsensical cuck meme

But it's not.

"Cuck" is one of the most aptly appropriate insults possible for the modern Left and SJW's.

They revel in their own emasculation in the name of promoting non-whites and other pet-minorities. They do this constantly online, in the media and in real-life.

How is it "nonsensical"?

>I'll pretend bad language is the reason people don't like Daddy Trump :3

>MUH LAMESTREAM MEDIA DOESN'T RESPECT MUH GOD EMPEROR

Holy shit OP don't you know it is the current year?

>So how does Sup Forums fit in?
It's a television show and this is Sup Forums - Television & Film.

This meme is heavily outdated. Jon Oliver is a leftist.

Largel,y I don't get it either. But I do think his show became something of a parody of itself, or started believing it's own bullshit. It and other shows/ comedians used or begin picking on everyone. If not entirely equally then at least to some notable degree. But over time they begin picking on a specific things and defending others. I think the problem comes when they begin defending certain things from criticism. The overall feel of the show or comedian might lean towards "preaching" or pushing an agenda or taking a side and that alienates people. And those that started off as fans of it or enjoying it feel more betrayed than those that never liked it to begin with.

>Shapiro is a proud conservative
(((Conservative)))

>DUDE IF YOU'RE NOT LITERALLY PUTTING CHRISTIANS IN GULAGS THAN YOU'RE NOT A *TRUE* LEFTIST LMAO

I love this meme.

Meanwhile, "leftism" in other supposedly enlightened countries looks like this.

Stewarts has been around for a while.

Oliver is a new foreign guy telling us how it is. He's also much less subtle than Jon. Maybe his accent makes him seem more cocky.

>I'll pretend Trump supporters dislike Hillary because she's a woman.

Are you pretending it isn't one of the most major reasons?

The Left has literally been shitting blood for a year in rage because Donald said that crime is one of the negative consequences of illegal immigration.

>mfw Sup Forums tries to convince me that a populist demagogue who is worshipped by his supporters won't be the death of the republic
Bonus point if they actually want the republic to die

>yet he doesnt get nearly as much hate as i see john oliver get.

Stewart's always been hated. He just isn't on TV any more.

Watch his full-retard video on how Trannies are super-duper legitimately actually women and you're a horrible bigot if you say otherwise and how there's nothing we evil bigots can do about it and trannies will literally be invading our homes in the years to come before waving a giant rainbow flag around while his audience hoots and shrieks like a cage full of chimpanzees.

Then come back here and tell me Jon Oliver isn't a leftist.

do you and the rest of Sup Forums ever get tired of constructing straw men?

Are you 12? It's a retarded insult only perpetuated by little kids.

He's not funny or smary and he appeals to numales from Reddit and 9Gag.

>Are you pretending it isn't one of the most major reasons?
Him being on trial for child rape and fraud + racketeering are of greater concern.

I don't know where this gay 'potty mouth' strawman came from, being offended by salty language is more of a southern religious thing. It's the message people find fault with, not the language.

>mfw Sup Forums has convinced me that a populist demagogue who is worshipped by his supporters is better than a compulsive criminal who has already been proven to have released several highly classified information that is outright dangerous not just for the country, but for our allies as well

But, if we go on your post, user. Both will destroy the country, you just have to pick which way to go. In a blade of nuclear fire, or through... er... what exactly? What is Trump going to do? I mean, we can ASSUME he's going to do many things, but Clinton is KNOWN to do many things.

Also, Hillary has been in charge for a long long time of a critical part of the US Govt. So ask yourself this very important question.

Has anything gotten BETTER under her leadership? If not, do you think her as the POTUS will suddenly change this?

As opposed to spooky tribalism from the alt-right?

You very, very clearly don't understand what a "strawman" is.

>I don't know where this gay 'potty mouth' strawman came from

It came from Liberals shitting blood over anyone having the gall to say anything that contradicts the hivemind.

Both are terrible choices, senpai. But I am tried of Sup Forums trying to convince one pile of shit is better than the other

The death of the Republic and democracy as a whole is corruption. The Clinton foundation peddles influence for donations and serves as a middleman for FEC violations. Clinton's own policy positions are dictated by corporate think-tanks and behemoths like George Soros (proven by wikileaks revelations).

She shouldn't be allowed to step foot in the oval office on those charges alone.

Economically speaking, he is right.

The "alt-right" currently has whites, blacks, jews, faggots, Christians, women and damn near every other identity-politics check-box that Liberals are obsessed with.

Exactly how are they "tribalistic"?

>No porn for whites
>Whites no longer are basement dwelling losers
>Continue outperforming blacks

Subtle.

he's a biased unfunny cuck who gives in to bullying

According to libshit Europeans, an economy isn't "leftist" until the government is literally paying for people to stay home due to fatness or "heavy metal addiction" and paying for junkies to get heroin.

snopes.com/politics/medical/heavymetal.asp

>Le child rape meme

Show me the evidence. Until you do it's a smear campaign, plain and simple. Hilary laughed about getting a man off for raping a 12 Year old. You have no moral high ground

The Clinton have been investigated for 30 years and yet they have never been found guilty of any crime.

Either they are the best criminals in the world involved in some massive conspiracy and cover up,

Or they are not guilty, I wonder which one is correct.

where did i put my razor?

>mfw this election exposes Democrats for the uncaring hypocrites they truly are

>ignore every single one of your own talking points.

Nice sophistry m8

>(((Jews)))
>blacks

>vote for a child rapist
>IT'S JUST A MEME BRO

>Implying the pragmatic center of the party has ever cared about the lunatic fringe.

Unlike the republicans the democrats don't let peta and other crazies run the party

>The death of the Republic and democracy as a whole is corruption.
>he doesn't know my reference

Smug prick hiding behind PC culture.

Everyone is biased, yes. Everyone is human. If only we were ruled by consensus like the Geth, ascension would be much easier.

When he was filling in for Jon Stewart he did pretty good. After that things went a bit off the rails.

>tfw too intelligent to find John Oliver funny, honest, or unbiased.

how often you hear nonsense on these topics on tv, or don't hear about it at all so even less in comedy form :
Patent trolls
revenge porn
Predatory churches
Capital punishment
Global warming controversy
Net neutrality
wealth inequality
"Native advertising" aka shilling
Payday loans
Pharmaceutical marketing

who cares about your fucking political identity: there is a lot of bullshit out there , we can agree on it from a common sense point of view and possibly work together as The People tm and fucking make it better for ourselves damn. hating on tax evasion is fucking retarded . ... i mean... what's the end game of haters of this dweeb? defend tax evasion? or its all about le hillary corporate meme vs trump corporate meme: superficial "tactical internet hating"

It fits in by being a tv show you dip

>Unlike the republicans the democrats don't let peta and other crazies run the party

Democucks literally dedicated two days of their convention to Black Trantrums Matter.

One of Obama's last actions as president has been making royal decrees that public schools have to allow faggots in drag to piss and shower with the girls.

You're a complete retard if you honestly don't think the Democratic party is up to its fucking neck in extremists.
ESPECIALLY with a pandering feminist Nazi like Hillary getting into office. Under her things will be twice what they were under Barrack "muh son was Saint Skittles" Obama.

So weird how the worst possible thing you can be in the now dominant PC culture is a "racist" or a "bigot". They're becoming the new swear words.

It's only a retarded insult because it describes you perfectly.

There's only two choices and one pile of shit is a much safer choice than the other pile of shit.

>Show me the evidence.
There was enough for it to go to trial.
>Hilary laughed about getting a man off for raping a 12 Year old.
No she didn't. Are you going to post the photo-shopped picture of her hugging a klansman next?

>Democucks literally dedicated two days of their convention to Black Trantrums Matter.

I don't see the problem, they get there chance to speak

>One of Obama's last actions as president has been making royal decrees that public schools have to allow faggots in drag to piss and shower with the girls.

Have you never use a unisex bathroom.

>the Democratic party is up to its fucking neck in extremists.

We have plenty of crazies, they don't make policy, they don't run for office.

The crazies are forced to run as green because they are not going to make it as a democrat

Seems like, if anything, the alt right that dwells on our boards are far more insecure about their masculinity and being outmatched by some imagined male rival than the left the way they obsess over it.

The investigation into the Clinton foundation began recently and is still on going. The investigation into the server was then stonewalled when the DoJ refused a recommendation to indict - which happened right after Bill Clinton met with Loretta Lynch on the tarmac of an airport.

Either he met with her to discuss the case and it impacted the result OR they talked about golf with his grandkids... for 45 minutes.

Where did I put my razor?

>They're becoming the new swear words.

Not even that. The witch-hunting for "racists" and "sexists" is literally the Red Scare 2.0.

Listen to an SJW talk about the "concealed" racism in society.
Then just swap the words "racist" with "communist".
It becomes IDENTICAL to the paranoid drivel of a drug-addled crackpot from 1951.

you should drop that shit talk. if you want to polarize , you will get what you want but in the opposite of what you want. trust me. i am fed up with intellectually dishonest uglies like you. come on , feed me. i swear there will be a cultural reckoning i will fucking wreck your lil shit memers contingent

It definitely and unfortunately is

I see people on Facebook who say shit like "how can you compare emails to racism?" Which seems crazy to me because national security has serious implications whereas Trump's racism is a bit more nebulous. I frankly doubt he's an actual racist btw

>I don't see the problem, they get there chance to speak
They're a black suppremacist movement.
Your entire point what that Democrats supposedly aren't cow-towing to extremists, when the reality is that's about the only thing they are doing right now.

>Have you never use a unisex bathroom.
The bathrooms weren't unisex. They were designated bathrooms, and the government literally wants men in drag to be treated like women because muh progress.

>they don't make policy, they don't run for office.
Again, we currently have plenty of fucking crazies in office AND legislating.

>baseless armchair psychology

Sounds more like you just got called out as a cuck and got mad about it.

>men in drag to be treated like women because muh progress.

Science says they are not just men in drag.

Either accept science or get the fuck out.

Your uninformed opinion is not as valid as those opinions informed by science.

anti-intellectualism is the real problem, the refusal of the right to accept science because of muh feelings

I bet you a trillion dollars you won't watch this video
m.youtube.com/watch?v=Tor00iWUhDQ

In Straya, at least where I come from, there is very little racial tension and I do not believe in judging someone based on something as superficial as their background or their genes BUT if you can't even make a joke or make fun of someone without the online mob trying to ruin your life and vilify you as some kind of horrible monster then something has gone wrong and the collective stick up the ass has to be removed.
I think when people adopt an extremist attitude there's always an equal and opposite reaction so they always end up balancing out one way or another.

Why is this such an issue?

If if was trump it would be an example of how great a lawyer he was.

>Science says they are not just men in drag.

What science have you been reading? Your SJW blog doesn't count.

A man putting on a dress doesn't make him a woman and never will.
If you honestly disagree with that statement, I highly suggest you don't bring up the topic of "science", because you are literally at war with it.

That's not what leftism is. Lol. In Maoist China or the Soviet Union, those people would be starving or dead.
